What exactly happens if a leak is found? I know all the symptoms, I'm just curious about what would actually happen.

Thanks

according to everything I've read and what my surgeon said, they end up having to put in a feeding tube into the intestines (I think) and basically you can't eat or drink anything until the leak heals on its own (the tissue closes up and heals).

I'm not entirely positive, but I think they have to go back in and sew/staple it up to close the leak if its big enough . I could be wrong though. But that's the impression I got when my Doctor discussed that scenario with me... I'm honestly not sure and its my biggest fear.
